oooo man i see my counselor tomorrow at 2:30!! ahh i'm freaking out i'm so scard....i don't know anything about her or what to do or say! i'm sure glad my mom tells me this tonight!!! grrrr that is just great! oo but i guess it's a releaife hat i'm seeing someone but i'm scard it's alway's hard to open up and let it out to someone i don't even know but then again it's kind of ease. but i'm alway's scared peopel are judging me and i hate that. o boy i hope this goes well tomorrow and i hope that i like her and feel comfortable wiht her because idk if i coudl get my mom to get me another one. this one took almose 2 or 3 years and if this doesn't work it will be another 2 years before i get another one. well at least by then i'll be 18 and can get one on my own.

Just go with an open mind. I have always been afraid of what other people think of me too. I go to a counselor and it has really helped me deal with my current and past issues. I feel stronger now than I have ever felt in my whole life.
good luck, hon! you\'ll do fine, I\'m sure. just keep an open mind, and don\'t go in there with fear. they smell it a mile away. go in there like a consumer, making a decision about her. don\'t give her too much info. on your first session, just feel her out. see if you mingle with her, and feel comfortable. and above all, remember, she is kind of your client. she only gets paid if you like her, and you say so. she is NOT the boss of your life! write tomorrow, about how it goes. good luck, and best wishes.
